Really great to have my first book launch for #Battleground10 at my home school of School of Politics & IR at Queen Mary last night. It was a fascinating discussion led by Renad Mansour from Chatham House MENA and Martin Coward, and lovely to have so many of my brilliant Queen Mary University of London colleagues come along.
